This page contains various Uranium Fever troubleshooting steps that should only be used when referenced by the Frequently Asked Questions or Uranium Fever authors.

Intel iGPU Users and GPUs Without Vulkan Support - Downgrading DXVK

Pre-Bundled DXVK

The latest version of DXVK comes included with Uranium Fever.

Intel iGPUs and older GPUs without Vulkan support are incompatible with the bundled version of DXVK and must instead use a downgraded version.

  • Intel iGPU users:

    • Navigate to the C:\Modding\Uranium Fever\DXVK\DXVK 1.10.1 folder.
    • Move d3d9.dll and dxvk.confinto C:\Modding\Uranium Fever\[NoDelete] Stock New Vegas, selecting Replace when prompted.
  • GPUs without Vulkan support:

    • Navigate to the C:\Modding\Uranium Fever\DXVK\DXVK 1.10.3 folder.
    • Move d3d9.dll and dxvk.confinto C:\Modding\Uranium Fever\[NoDelete] Stock New Vegas, selecting Replace when prompted.

Disabling Steam Overlay

Why?

This process disables Steam Overlay, which causes crashes and worsen performance.

  • Navigate to the Steam Root Folder (where steam.exe is located).

  • Right click GameOverlayRenderer.dll and open properties.

  • Open the security tab and click edit.

  • Click the Deny option under Read & Execute for every user.

  • Click Apply, then Yes.

    Steam Overlay 1

  • In the same folder, right click SteamOverlayVulkanLayer.dll and open properties.

  • Open the security tab and click edit.

  • Click the Deny option under Read & Execute for every user.

  • Click Apply, then Yes.

    Steam Overlay 2

warning

This step will need to be repeated each time Steam updates, which occurs each time time steam launches.

This CANNOT be done directly through the Steam settings. Even if disabled via Steam, the overlay still injects its DLL directly into the game, which can result in crashes.
